Obama 2nd Term ?




Telegraph: Reports on the prospects for President Obama to run for a second term in 2012. This blog has predicted that President Obama will either not run or go down to major defeat, think Walter Mondale when he lost to Ronald Reagan by 49 States and 59% of the vote. Lets be clear Obama is elite and arrogant, but he is not stupid, if he gets a Republican House and Senate his Domestic Agenda is dead in the water. In 1994 Bill Clinton faced a Republican Congress but still won in 1996 but Clinton was a great pragmatic politician, he went to the centre, even centre right to win in 1996. The Obama Presidency has one problem, its President Obama, lets be clear Obama is a clever and bright guy, he saw how great Reagan was, but he is not Reagan, the Gipper was also a great pragmatic politician, the Obama domestic and world view is so left of centre as to be in Cuba, and even Cuba is seeing the faults with left wing politics. If Obama was to really look at his style and policies of Government and see that he would have to change his whole psychological make up would fall apart, how do you tell your self that your spouting rubbish and even worse wrong rubbish. Thus the Obama political makeup will see that in 2012 he cant win or worse he will go down the toilet, thus without the love he will get out, he will blame the Republicans, the media, think a liberal Richard Nixon. That is the sad part about Obama, he could have been a contender, now he will be another Jimmy Carter.
